Chronicles of Darkness
We live our days completely ignorant of the true terrors lurking around us. Only rarely do our experiences draw back the veil of shadows and reveal the horror in our midst. These glimpses into the supernatural can cause us to retreat into comforting lies — “There are no such things as monsters” — or stir our morbid curiosity. Only a few, however, can overcome their fear and dare to look deeper.
After an extensive overhaul of the concepts of the World of Darkness, the Chronicles of Darkness (sometimes “CofD”) was developed in 2004 with the release of the World of Darkness Rulebook, featuring a game of ordinary people who find themselves embroiled in the supernatural. More than a decade later, it remains a fan favorite supporting an incredible ten supporting lines. Onyx Path Publishing is delighted to offer dozens of role-playing game, fiction, art, and clothing products for the Chronicles of Darkness, as well as helping to rerelease hundreds of original books through PDF and print-on-demand.

It’s Sunday, and so you, faithful readers, are again faced with a decision regarding what aspect of Promethean you want to hear about come Tuesday morning. I’ve given the choice several times as “Refinements or [something else],” and while the vote is always close, “something else” always gets picked. As I was typing up notes for … Read more
It’s another layover week, and there’s one Path left, so it’s time to look at the Thyrsus. (It’s okay, though, we’ve got five Orders to get through before I run-out of emergency fill-in material.) So. The Thyrsus. I know we’re not supposed to have favorites, and from a game design perspective I don’t, but let … Read more
No, not the Radio 4 programme. Told you I’d set a reminder. This week, as promised, I’m rummaging through the comments section of last week’s post for content. I’m also reminding you that the Idigam Chronicle Fiction Anthology is out now!
The Idigam Chronicle Anthology is now available in PDF on DriveThruFiction! On the hunt, your blood races. When something hunts you, it runs cold. Your blood carries the future of Uratha and the burning fire of kuruth. It’s powerful, but ultimately transient. You know things in your bones. They change with your forms but stay … Read more
A long time ago – what seems like an incredibly long time to me, but is probably actually about a year and a half, I had a conversation with Ian Watson. I was newly-minted Awakening Developer but still claiming to not be in threads because second edition hadn’t been publicly announced. Ian was recently released … Read more
Every Promethean burns with an inner fire so intense, it scorches the land around them. It makes people uncomfortable, even if they can’t figure out why. The Divine Fire, the energy that ultimately allows the alchemy of the Great Work, also sets Prometheans apart from the world they want to join. In 2nd Edition, we’re … Read more
Today I did an interview with The Gentleman Gamer, in which we discussed Beast: The Primordial, Chill, and, of course, Promethean 2nd Edition. Have a look! I know it’s long, so get a snack. Today is also Sunday, and therefore I pose this question to you: Would you like my next open dev post (on Tuesday) to … Read more
The followers of Dracula hold tight to their hidden rites and secret truths. Their mysteries aren’t as flashy as sorcery, but that very clandestine nature increases their thrall over the imaginations of the dead. Secrets of the Covenants presents new Merits for members of the Order and their allies, as well as little-known or heretical … Read more
Hello, mummy fans! Sorry for as much radio silence as there’s been on my end, but I’m happy to report that Book of the Deceived is in layout in time for the Halloween season, and that’s appropriate since it contains some of the creepiest material you’re likely to see for the World of Darkness. The … Read more
